New Trusted Traveler kiosks come to the BNIA

For international travelers, there’s a new convenience at the Buffalo Niagara International airport: kiosks, courtesy of the Department of Homeland Security. They allow users to sign up for the Trusted Traveler program, which acts like a common application for NEXUS, TSA PreCheck and Global Entry.

As Bill Vanecek explained at the press conference, “What a great deal. Here you get all three for just $50,” he said. “It's really a no-brainer.”

The kiosks are post-security, next to the NFTA Police desk, in the “beak” of the Airport. Passengers with extra time between security and the boarding of their flight can use them to save even more time later, on their next trip. Once approved, personal interviews will be scheduled and it’s all worth. The program makes any border crossing easier, whether you’re using our airport, another airport, or one of the international bridges.
